Phil Jackson said Pau Gasol fouled on dunk miss

PHOENIX -- Jeanie Buss, who stayed home from Staples Center because of illness Thursday night, said via her Twitter account that boyfriend Phil Jackson came home from the Game 5 victory, kissed her forehead and went to watch footage of the fourth quarter.

Jackson said Saturday he wanted to look over a few key plays, including whether Pau Gasol was fouled on his missed dunk in the final minute and Steve Nash traveled on another key play. There was no call on either play.

Asked about Gasol being fouled, Jackson said: "Yes, he was."

Asked about Nash traveling, Jackson said: "Yes, he did."

Gasol's missed dunk came on the possession before Phoenix's Jason Richardson hit a tying 3-pointer to forge a tie.
